I have no idea what this episode is about! Exciting! There is a super old dude in it, though!

This was a weird episode. A very old admiral makes the decision to take some untested alien drug to regain his youth so that he can redress a wrong he committed on a somewhat friendly, yet non-Federation planet. While he does get an extra dose for his wife, he doesn’t actually ask her about it, and ends up taking both doses anyway. Men. The actor that played the admiral was pretty awful, actually, and the story didn’t make a lot of sense. Like, how are you gonna redress a wrong by going in guns blazing? Nonsensical.

Fashion Talk: I just noticed that Starfleet pants have these little openings right above their shoes! That’s actually a pretty clever way to make sure the pants don’t bunch up at the ankle. I approve!
